How to prove that the interpolant is supported in the Minkowski sum?

35 Views Asked by At

In Villani's book, Topics in Optimal Transportation, Lemma 6.3 is claimed without proof.

Lemma 6.3 (The interpolant is supported in the Minkowski sum). Let $\mu=\rho_0$, $\nu=\rho_1$ be the uniform probability measures carried by the compact sets $X$ and $Y$. Then, for all $t\in[0,1]$, the interpolant $\rho_t=[\mu,\nu]_t$ has its support included in the Minkowski combination $(1-t)X+tY$.

Is there anyone who could tell me how to prove that?
